    Thank you for this. There may be no greater victory in 2024 than posting something on the internet and getting a response of “I can’t disagree with anything you said.” ;-)

    Depends what can you’re talking about. The can that is the current NCAA landscape was blown open long ago so no comment by me or anyone else here opens that further. If we’re talking about our fans opinion of NIL, yes, 100%, crack it open. I doubt you’ll get much disagreement on anything you said, including from me. It’s well said. But the most important thing you said is “we have to play if we want any chance.” If you read your full post, I think you do a pretty good job on the argument of why we have to do it. Basically…it kinda stinks, but it’s also been happening forever and now it’s legal and in the open. So, let’s play the damn game as best we can. I’ll go back to my previous comment…if it only makes us competitive, Woody is still toast. But let’s at least play the game to try to be competitive, or even better than that. Worst case scenario we prove to the next coach that we’re serious about NIL.

    I mean, I can kind of see that. But I just can’t imagine the reaction (me included) if we were really behind in NIL or if our program felt like they didn’t really need to play that game. I don’t care the reason behind it. “Competitive” Woodson doesn’t keep his job. Really good coach Woodson keeps his job and the really good job part will have very little, if anything, to do with how much we paid players. I, for one, am glad we are acting like a big boy program and paying players in the era where you have to pay players. Even if we are paying more to try to make our coach more competitive.

    Seems like a lot of posts that have a negative tone about us paying players. We can’t possibly be upset that we are playing the game we have to play, right?

    Well it's been a fun 16 minutes of of letting the "wait, what if...." thoughts get my hopes up. Thanks for the reality check.

    I'm sure I already know the answer to this, but has this ship completely sailed? It seems the recruiting fire has been ignited to some degree. Doesn't appear there's been any movement with McNeeley yet. Is there any chance the message can be flipped, show who we're in on in the portal and how that will change our offense, and that we have a fresh stockpile of cash with his name on it?

    ...who very specifically said he liked the fact that he wasn't promised anything from Woody, that if he'd have to earn playing time.

    You’ve obviously never experienced the thrill of staying up 3 hours too late on a Tuesday night in November yelling at a meaningless blowout non-conference game b/c you got the Zags -24.5 as your last leg of a 4 pick parlay.

    Big oops missing out on Yale, but Utah St, GCU, and JMU (who I accidentally bet on twice) closed out a strong day and as I was saying I just absolutely love sports.

    I bet the ML on every underdog today minus 16 seeds, 15 seeds, and Yale (Auburn is a sleeper title pick IMO). Helped that DraftKings was handing out 25% boosts like candy. So far NW and Clemson doing me well and UAB nearly pulled it out.

    Isn’t “Anything can happen in a single elimination tournament” logically a good reason to not judge a coach on single elimination tournament results? If a final four run can be chalked up to “anything can happen” so can a first round exit. Bill self has 2 first round exits and 7 (likely 8 tomorrow) 2nd round exits on his resume. Anything can happen.

    Indiana Players Now In The Portal

    Welcome to....The Internet! Where, no matter the topic, some of the stuff you read will be downright delusional. The trick to this game is, will we make broad sweeping statements about what the delusional "some" represents? Or will we understand that the delusional is, indeed, just "some", and most definitely not all? Tune in to find out!

    Indiana Players Now In The Portal

    Might I suggest you mods fine tune the BTB algo to filter out all of these messages that say the same thing over and over again to a ghost thread titled "Spot on. This x 1000%". It will just be an endless loop of nothing statements about things sucking and people responding with "Spot on" or "This x 1000%".

    I regret this for you. My very last final exam as a student was The Music of the Beatles. What nice little bow to tie on my time in Bloomington.

    I don’t think we can blame Indiana players for taking advantage of the current college athletics landscape/market. And if anybody is actually playing for the name on the front of the jersey, it’s Anthony Leal.
